Except for some exercise-related items that may work if
the user does not become bored with them, few if any health-related products
sold through 30-minute infomercials will live up to the claims made for them.
In addition, many sellers fail to honor refund requests and/or make unauthorized
credit card charges. This site provides
investigative reports and other documents related to consumer protection. Meanwhile,
the best way to protect yourself is to ignore all program-length (15 to 30-minute) health-related infomercials.
